Bright, Sunshiney Day

Yes dear friends, like most of you we have been having some wonderful bright, sunshiney days. Unfortunately, the last few have been very HOT! So, I have been staying inside and sewing a bit.

I had an idea to make these stitching/sewing cases. They are perfect to use with project bags as they help keep your needfuls together so you don't have to go digging around in your bag for them.

Each one is a little different but they all have a place to tuck your scissors, a package (or two) of needles, a spool of thread or several skiens of floss, and they have a wool needle page on which to park your needle. I even made a couple of matching fobs for the blue ones.

I do plan to sell some of these. If you are interested, please email me. $15.00 plus postage - email address is in my profile.

I am eagerly awaiting my first bloom on my sunflowers.

Here is one just starting to develop! I can't wait.

I can't believe today is the last day of my staycation. I really did a whole lot of nothing but you know what? I think that is exactly what I needed. I do know that I have some long work days ahead of me as we are short staffed. I will be checking in on all of you but may not always have time to leave a comment.

Hey Myra! It looks like you had a nice peaceful week. I hope that you got rested up. The cases look great. You are very talented. You will have sunflowers soon.I hope that the upcoming week is easier. Stay cool!

Wow! I can't believe you made all of those this week, Myra! You chosen such great fabrics for them, too--each one is wonderful :)

Our sunflowers are growing like crazy, too! I can't believe how tall they are for this time of year. Looks like it will be a good year for all the vegetables as long as we can keep those darn chipmunks away!
